Not that it matters much to me, but I recall @NorthSideSmoke getting plenty of grief for posting political memes lampooning Trump.

Nice, where'd you find that? Also, I knew that was a Connecticut. I'm learning. Going to get to wear my big boy pants one of these days.

Oh, and plenty of "genuine cuban cigars" available from street vendors who deliver right to wherever you're trying to walk. Some of them even look like original Cohiba labels. Not the cigars, just the labels. Lots of glass top humidors full of Cohibas. I didn't know they were so plentiful!

If those pics were black and white, it'd be just like all the old-timey portraits where you don't smile. ;-)

Re: Good cigars for beginners
Be like @Amos_Umwhat. He buys his cigars by the pallet. Am I right, Steve?

@memento_mori When I think of my palate, what comes to mind is chocolate, espresso, bourbon, caramel, honey, scotch, vanilla, cinnamon, fig, cherry, date, cedar, oak, sandalwood, and leather. Thanks to everyone who's commented and has been very helpful!
You can spell palate! And use the term correctly! That puts you light years ahead of most of our newbies, and many of those who've been here a long time.
As mentioned a couple times above, Macanudo. Well made cigars that don't knock you down. I've long said that they are the perfect cigar for people who don't smoke cigars. They're stepping up their game with the Inspirado line, making cigars for those whose palate has become accustomed to stronger flavors.
All in all though, it's something that's hard to guide any individual to. Everyone is different. I always thought of the Perdomo Champagne as a cigar that any smoker would enjoy, but there are people out there, people whose tastes I usually agree with, who don't like them at all.
Watch the "what are you smoking" threads, learn the difference in wrappers such as Cameroon, San Andres, Connecticut etc., and don't buy too many at once of anything until you've learned what you like. Also, as I think someone mentioned, your tastes will change as time goes on.
Welcome to the forum, hope you stick around, be aware that you cannot take yourself too seriously here. Lots of pranksters and trolls inhabit these woods, but really it's all in fun.
